NHL Playoff

I believe that the Bruins will win the Stanley Cup this season. When the Bruins get on a roll and play the game that they know, they are unstoppable. We have seen them dominate games and we have seen them slack off in games, but in the end they will be able to pull through and win it all. Patrice Bergeron has been a key scorer for the Boston Bruins recently and if he keeps up the good work, he will help pull through a win for the Bruins in the playoffs. Chara is also a great defender for the Bruins. He is always willing to shove people into the boards in order to get the puck. He is a great captain who is always willing to stick up for his teammates. With the leadership of Chara, the Boston Bruins should be able to pull through with another Stanley Cup.

Skategate Scandal

     Tonya Harding did not deserve to be in the 1994 Winter Olympics, simply because of her unsportsmanlike act toward competitor Nancy Kerrigan. The fact that Harding had the nerve to hire a "thug" to take out Kerrigan's knee was awful. Clearly you have to be an awful person if you're okay with hiring someone to physically harm someone with a bat. If you are that worried that you will lose that bad, practice and train harder, don't harm someone.
    After reading about what Harding did to Kerrigan, I felt so bad that Kerrigan's skating career was basically over with just a couple hits to the knee with a bat. I seriously can't believe the nerve of some people. I feel like they did the right thing by not letting Tonya compete after what she did. If I were them, I would have sent her to jail for 2 years, but that's just me. As an athlete, I hate when people have bad sportsmanship, and Tonya Harding is the definition of an unsportsmanlike person who deserves to live a life of guilt.
